Pretty Little Ballerinas: Ballet and Jazz Classes (2-12yrs)

Ella

Both of my girls have been with the Pretty Little Ballerina's studio for 4 years and they love it. Lizzy has created a positive fun environment and all the teachers are fabulous role models for young girls.

Rachel

Our eldest daughter who is nearly five has been attending PLB since she was two and has loved every minute of her lessons. We’ve had to change locations (and therefore teachers) a couple of times and she has had a positive experience with all of them.

Tatijana

I came across Pretty Little Ballerinas in Surry Hills after some research on the best ballet schools for for my 3.5 years old daughter. I am absolutely thrilled with our experience! My daughter looks forward to every single lesson. We have had the pleasure of having Ms Tia as our teacher. She is loving, patient, professional and most importantly, the kids absolutely adore her! The dance concert at the end of the year is an absolute highlight and showcases just how much the little ballerinas learn :) I highly recommend Pretty Little Ballerinas to any parent whose child is interested in learning ballet! Thank you Ms Tia and the brilliant team at PLB!

Chris

We love Pretty Little Ballerinas. Their classes a fun, engaging, age appropriate and all the teachers are very welcoming. I have seen a big improvement in my little ones confidence thanks to Pretty Little Ballerinas nurturing, gentle approach. We look forward to many more terms at Pretty Little Ballerinas.

Our daughter has loved every teacher and every class of PLB. There’s a lovely mix of traditional ballet with age appropriate fun and imagination. We look forward to seeing what she learns this year, and trust she’s in good hands with all the qualified and patient teachers .

Lizzy hosted an awesome end of year concert last year! Looking forward to this year's events. My daughter enjoyed every class and it benefited many other aspects of her life as well. We highly recommend parents to try PLB

I love seeing my daughter develop her dance skills each week. She loves taking direction from Miss Lizzy and learning all the positions

The baby ballet class for 2-3 yr olds is fantastic. The class is well structured for little ones to keep them interested and lots of fun. The teachers are just lovely and the venue at Surry Hills above the library is great.

Kylie

Our family (2 daughters) love Pretty Little Ballerinas! The teachers put together a lovely, fun and engaging class every week.

Excellent ballet classes for my little dancer who loves Miss Lizzy. Studio in Coogee is gorgeous and every little ballerina dances out of class glowing. Highly recommend.

Ali Shields

A wonderful ballet school that’s warm and friendly. Great teachers who help bring shy ones out of their shells. A perfect intro to ballet.

Vikki Wang

My daughter has been going to the ballet class since 2-year old, she loves the teachers! Convenient location and timetable, friendly staffs, strongly recommended!

Lily

My 5 year old absolutely love the class. It's a fun and encouraging environment for all kids to enjoy music and ballet. The Alexandria location is new and convenient, perfect for us. The end of year concert is always done professionally, very impressive.

Rachel

My daughter LOVES the classes with PLB and started around 2.5 and has recently moved up to the older class and is now being taught without me and of course is behaving perfectly for the teachers. The teachers are great with feedback and always take the time to talk through any concerns with you before or after class or via email. The classes are fun yet structured to teach ballet to a toddler in an engaging environment. Highly recommend.

Jacqui

Both of my girls go to Pretty Little Ballerinas and love it. Lizzy has created is a fun positive environment for the kids to learn ballet. All of the teachers have been great role models for my girls.

Angela

My daughter loves Pretty Little Ballerinas! After trying other dance classes we found PLB and I couldn’t be happier. Miss Lizzy (and all the ballet teachers) are so talented and really provide a fun and nurturing environment for the little ballerinas to learn in.

Seze

Would definately recommend this place! The teachers are so positive, engaging and disciplined. Ms Lizzy is so organised which really helps busy parents get themselves organised with prompt reminders about what is happening at the studios. My daughter thoroughly enjoys her lessons and can't wait for the next. Thank you so much team Pretty Little Ballerina.

Heather MacEachern

My daughter has been going to Pretty Little Ballerinas for a year now and has loved every minute of it. The talent and dedication of the teachers is wonderful and they are adored by the children. Would recommend 100%.

Katarina Loncar

Pirouettes, arabesques, turns and swirls, a perfect world for all the girls! "Pretty little ballerinas" is the place, for girls to express their poise and pace. You're truly the best without a doubt, and provide plenty to brag about! :)

Michelle Sandrk

Took my baby girl after a recommendation from a girlfriend of mine. Miss Lizzy offered a free trial lesson to see how my then 2 year old would like it. Miss Lizzy showed us a well structured lesson in a totally relaxed and positive environment. The lessons focus on music dance and most of all fun and imagination!! We especially love the end of year concerts performed by all the students. Cuteness overload watching children dance. We have enjoyed 3 end of year concerts and loved every one of them. The classes have progressed as my daughter has gotten older. I love hearing what she has done in each lesson. Miss Lizzy shows utmost professionalism and caring nature to all her students and is passes onto he amazing and wonderful team.

Anchisa Rattanawan

My 3 years old daughter Chloe loves coming to Pretty Little Ballerinas since she had a trial class. She likes Miss Lizzy very much after she had a few lessons with her. Because Miss Lizzy shows beautiful demonstration of the Ballet actions and uses her nice voice to inspire the children to dance gracefully. I personally like her teaching style when I danced with my daughter in the baby ballet class. It was always a happy experience for both of us every Tuesday. Chloe was so proud of herself in the end of year concert and she has gain a lot of confidence . I really appreciate Miss Lizzy's patience to teach Chloe . We look forward to dance with Miss Lizzy again !! ? Anchisa R.

Pitchayada Ruanglek

My daughter absolutely adores her ballet class and looks forward to it every week. The combo of dance and pretend play is perfect for little two year olds and it brings out the little ballerina in all of them !

Phillippa Waters

PLB is a wonderful ballet school ... my girls look forward to their class every week ... Miss Lizzy and her teachers create a warm and stimulating learning environment for your little dancer.

Bronwen Daunt

Hands down the best activity my pre-schooler does. She's been with PLB for two years with no sign of losing interest. It's a really interactive, positive class and you can see the kids progressing each term.

Amanda

Lizzy and her team at PLB run fun and stimulating classes for toddlers. The classes involve ballet steps, fun movements, ribbons and fairy wands to keep the young ones interested during the class. Through the class my daughter has learnt confidence and class participation which has help her develop as person.

Tihana

Our 3yr old daughter has been going to PLB classes weekly for about a year now, and absolutely loves them. She started in the baby ballerinas class, which was really age appropriate - each week there is a different theme (e.g. circus, zoo etc), with short segments involving dancing, jumping, music and even some fairy-wand-bubble-popping action at the end. Great way to burn some energy and develop coordination. We now no longer live in the area, but still commute to the PLB classes because she loves them so much. Miss Lizzy and Miss Irena are amazing. I couldn't recommend these classes highly enough!

Natalia

My daughter has been attending PLB classes for over two years now (since she was 2yo and she is 4 now). She absolutely adores her teachers (Ms Lizzy and Ms Irina) and looks forward to dancing in the class every week. The classes are very well organised, fun and engaging; kids can easily follow instructions; they learn and have fun at the same time. The end of the year concert gives my daughter an enomous boost of self esteem and pride in her dancing. She's always looking forward to another concert. PLB team ensures that the kids learn discipline and dancing skills in a beautiful nurturing environment. They also get to dance to a beautiful classical music. I highly recommend PLB classes to any parent whose children are interested in starting the ballet/ dance classes. PLB will give your children a perfect introduction to the dance and music.

Anna

My son and daughter have been enjoying PLB ballet classes for over a year now. On top of the great instruction offered in the classes, my children are both forming firm friendships with their class mates and enthusiastically look forward to class – I must admit I look forward to seeing the parents at drop off too! The teaching style at PLB is bringing out the best in my children and instilling in them a love of ballet and dance. The PLB team are absolute gems, and I’d highly recommended the classes to any parent looking to introduce their little one to proper ballet technique taught in a caring, creative and nurturing environment.

cathy

My daughter (Aged 4) has been attending Pretty Little Ballerinas for just over a year and she loves it! Lizzy and the team have been flexible and accommodating when I have needed to make changes. The effort and attention that goes into the end of year concert is incredible and it is all done without any pressure or expectation placed on the children. My daughter is still dancing her concert steps around the house and loves wearing her costume. I would recommend Pretty Little Ballerinas to any mums looking for an incredible, fun and flexible ballet school for their children.

Nikoll

A beautiful environment that inspires creative dance that is not only fun but is taught by a positive team of teachers. My daughter looks forward to her classes each week and is thoroughly engaged. Keep up the good work girls!

Yuki

My then 2 year old daughter joined PLB late last year and her weekly ballet classes with Miss Lizzy has been one of the highlights ever since. Lizzy is very patient with children and it is clear throughout the classes that she cares for them very much. She is also very approachable which I think is important. The baby class is easy to engage for the little ones with routine involved, fun with a lot of imagination and using instruments and props. I really enjoyed this class moving around with my daughter. My daughter has moved up to Twinkle Toes recently. While I sometimes wonder what they do in the classroom, I am enjoying my me-time knowing that my daughter is in good hands and enjoying the class with her classmates.

Suzi

We love this Rushcutters ballet school - attentive teaching and some magical themes have really engaged our four-year old. Plus, we loved the effort, energy and costumes for the Christmas concert!

Lisa

My daughter loves her classes with Miss Lizzy! This is her second year and I'm sure she will continue for many years to come. She looks forward to every class and she skips / dances home afterwards. The end of year concert is beautifully run and incredibly professional. Lizzy and the teachers are so kind and patient. My daughter is usually shy in front of lots people but she loved every minute of it!

Kerstin

My daughter joined Pretty Little Ballerinas almost a year ago. She absolutely loves it and is always looking forward to it. The atmosphere is very positive and uplifting. We used to come to Surry Hills for her lesson, but now conveniently have a two minute walk to Rushcutters Bay.

Louise

My daughters love going to ballet at Pretty Little Ballerinas. We have been attending classes for the past two years and it the highlight of their week. The classes are very well run and the teachers are amazing with the children. Their approach to each child, their attention to detail and wonderful words of encouragement each week is what sets them apart from any other schools we've attended. Pretty Little Ballerinas holds a fantastic end of year concert each year. It's a wonderful day, and the girls love being up on stage and having family from overseas watching them perform. We love Pretty Little Ballerinas! Looking forward to another great year of ballet with Miss Lizzy.

Katherine

100% recommend PLB. The teachers are very patient and kind and each class engages the child and gets their imaginations going as they go on a new adventure each. The classes are excellent and I have really seen my daughter grow in confidence since she started attending. Ballet day is definitely our favourite day of the week!

Liz

My daughter LOVES her Saturday ballet class. She spends the whole week at home in between classes pretending to be Miss Lizzy and reenacting her ballet classes! I often find her in her bedroom practising her ballet moves, so adorable. Miss Lizzy's classes are fun, imaginative and pitched at exactly the right level for the gorgeous little ballerinas. I'm not sure who enjoys the classes more, my 2 year old or me!

Ginger

My daughter loves coming to Pretty Little Ballerinas every week. She loves to dance and play with others. The teachers are very patient with little ones. Especially Lizzy She's great!!

Barbara

My daughter has been going to PLB for 9 months and she loves it. The classes are both professional and really fun. Lizzy knows exactly how to create a perfect class for our little ones, she really cares about them, and teach them ballet stances in a creative and fun atmosphere. On top of all, she organizes an end of the year show where we can see the children in costumes performing on a real stage all the moves they have learnt so far.

Cho

Highly recommend PLB if your little one loves to move and dance. What I love about Lizzy’s classes is she uses imaginative play and fun themes whilst integrating basic ballet positions to engage the children and nurture their love to dance. My daughter has been going to Lizzy’s class for 10 months and it’s been amazing to see how much she has developed and gained confidence.

Audrey Chan

Having never attended any form of dance classes myself, I went in blind and did not know what to expect when I first started enquiring about ballet schools for my daughter, Arabella Rose to attend. I emailed various schools and was not very impressed and the delay in communication or lack there of. Pretty Little Ballerinas was different. Lizzy not only return my email promptly, but her reply was very welcoming and there was no pressure to join the classes at all (which I did receive from some of the schools I contacted). Pretty Little Ballerinas was hands down our leading choice when choosing a school to enrol Arabella in. My daughter has loved every moment of being part of Lizzy's school, from the very first class, up until now. Saturdays are definitely a very exciting highlight to her week as she wakes up early and gets ready for her ballet lessons singing "Lizzy, Lizzy, Rina......." - Arabella absolutely adores Lizzy. I believe since becoming part of Pretty Little Ballerinas, Arabella's confidence has multiplied ten fold and it is a testament to Lizzy and her genuine encouragement and care for her tiny students in her school. This is Arabella Rose's second term and no doubt we will be continuing for years to come!!

Laura

Miss Lizzy's classes are so beautifully thought out, it is evident how much planning and preparation goes into each lesson. Thank You so much for taking the time to create such a magical story EVERY week :)

Joanne Gambale

Miss Lizzy is much loved by the children in her Twinkle Toes class, my daughter especially! This is the highlight of my three-year-old's week and it's such a great way for her to learn not only basic ballet skills but how to follow instructions from someone outside the family - not to mention the interaction with other children. Boys attend as well as girls and I find the whole vibe relaxed but highly professional.

Louise

My daughter loves ballet with Lizzy. Lizzy makes it so fun for the kids that they are engrossed in the games and exercises. I am surprised at how she get a group of under 3's to participate so well. Ballet is our Saturday morning outing to get dressed up, grab a babycino and have some fun dancing. Great for mums and kids.

Sarah

My daughter throughly enjoys every minute of the class and can't wait to go back! Amazing teacher, with a passion for ballet, very caring and relaxed environment. Engaging classes with careful attention played to stimulating 'little ballerinas' both physically and mentally.

Steph

My daughter Jessie has just started at pretty little ballerinas and is absolutely loving it! It has a wonderfully welcoming atmosphere, and a lovely imaginative nature that takes the little ones on a great ballet adventure. its truly impressive to see how absorbed the kids are with miss Lizzy for a whole 40mins. Massive thumbs up!

Steph Reusa

We love Lizzy and ballet every week! Our little Clemmie, who is 2 1/2 talks about Ballet all week til we go, she does the moves she learns around our living room which gives me endless giggles! It is a really fun, special thing we do every week together. I think she loves it so much because Lizzy makes it so fun and different- each week we have a new theme, of a circus or fairy garden etc (I don't know how she comes up with all the ideas!), so there's new music and moves. Clemmie has learned to jump and use her imagination for the first time, so so cute! We LOVE it!

Emma

Miss Lizzy is a breath of fresh air to Darlinghurst. Her lessons are beautiful and the children just love her. Classes are small, allowing Miss Lizzy to give each child her careful attention. My ballerina is captivated by Miss Lizzy and loves popping the bubbles at the end of the lesson. This is a fun, age appropriate class for young children in a caring environment. Thank you Miss Lizzy!

Margot

Lizzy's ballet classes are everything a little girl dreams of! No matter what age, the children are completely captivated by Lizzy. The amazing adventures she dreams up for the girls in class each week are so enigmatic that even some of the mums long to join in. Pretty Little Ballerinas is an absolute joy to watch... I finally know why people always say your SO lucky to have a little girl. Thanks for opening up in Surry Hills Lizzy!

Kristy

My little ballerina LOVES her Monday visit to see Lizzy. The classes are so lovely and the little ones love the fantasy adventures that Lizzy takes them on. Such a clever idea to incorporate simple ballet postures into fun adventures. Highly recommended for boys and girls. 10 out of 10!

Lisa

My daughter loves going to Ballet at Pretty Little Ballerinas. Each week little miss S puts on her favourite tutu and I put her hair in a bun- it's a must! (just like Miss Lizzy she says) The classes are designed in age groups and each lesson the children get to use all sorts of fun-filled props. Every lesson is different and little miss S gets so excited telling her nanny and pop what she did in class that week!
